It sometimes happens that the writing is complicated in an attempt to prevent the item is excessively simple. That however is not the way. The manufacturer of the item must wonder if it is relevant to raise a certain content, if it is, it must be included without masking that prevents the subject properly choose an answer.</p>

<ul>
<i>
<p>What is the population in which lie the headquarters of political bodies, judicial and legislative, as well as that of many economic agents, and that the head of state is usually called "transalpine"?</p>
<ol>-Berna.</ol>
<ol>-París.</ol>
<ol>-Roma.</ol>
